#24700 A Gravel Road on the Graveyard~ You are on a well-kept gravel road that leads north-south through the graveyard. On both sides of the road, grave markers poke up out of the ground.

In fact, I was a bit shocked to receive praise now and then. The area connects to South Midgaard at the grate (sexton has key). It includes, although they are modified, the original path amongst the evergreens and chapel that is found in stock diku. I recommend you do the following: Replace the name "Someone" on the tombstones (.wld file) with the names of some of your past players, gods, or your own creative names. On Kallisti, I used the Gods. The collesuim belonging to the Implementor. Vary the contents of the tombstones. These are containers you can put small items in. If you have a problem with key hoarders, consider a second entrance to the catacombs. Perhaps through the sewers. Most of all, enjoy!
